Oh my goddess, the ending leaves me needing the final book in the trilogy. I guess the prequel that is coming will be good enough for now.

I LOVED IT!
I am gutted there isn’t a third yet and the next thing out is a prequel. The ending had me gasping and yelling - even my kid wanted to know what had happened (and he’s 4).
I enjoyed this more than the first but that’s likely due to the fact I had a better understanding of just now grounded Dawson’s work is in our own reality. Her ability to create a pocket world inside the actual reality we’re currently living is extraordinary but it made for a slightly jarring experience at first.
I cannot wait for more of this story - prequel which will talk about one of my favorite historical figures (Anne Boleyn) and the next installment from present day can’t arrive fast enough.
Love love love

Normally if a second book is available I launch right into it after the first, but the ending of the first one scarred me emotionally so I had to give things a few weeks to percolate. But I'm glad I finally did - this one was even better than the last! Some real killer twists and turns. Some of which I'm still confused about, which is why this is 4.5 stars instead of 5 (but I'm rounding up because it was still really good)
